Hello,
As I can understand your dog have problem with obstruction of the nose canals. Obstruction can cause cold air, what is normal in this period of the year (depence where you live) or some infection of the upper airway due to low immunity. In older dogs obstruction can cause different types of neoplasia. If your dog is brachyocephalic, sound of snoring is usual when they sleap or run. Acording to this, observe the dog what period of the day it have problems with breathing.
My advise is you (or vet) shoud first merge rectal temperature; high temperature points to infection of upper airways. If there is a discharge of the nostrils it could be some viral infection. This will indicate the tretmant with antibiotics and vitamins in some veterinary clinic.
Veterinarian should examine (otoscop, x-ray, etc.) the nose canals if infection is not the cause of obstruction.
